The ministers in the hall were still arguing about whether it was better to relax the sea ban or be stricter, but Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting on the dragon chair, ignored the books in his hands, looking for the sentences quoted in the minister's argument just now.

Huang Jin, who was waiting beside him, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the anger of the saint gradually subsided.

Soon Emperor Jiajing flipped through the place that the ministers had just quoted, and after reading it, he seemed to have a little disdain and flattened his mouth, and then closed the book and watched the ministers in the audience arguing with interest.

If you fight well, if you don't fight, how can I control you.

Under the gaze of Emperor Jiajing, these ministers were even more bloody, blushing and invoking various supporting materials for the strict prohibition or relaxation of the prohibition advocated by them.

"Whether it is the border troubles in our current court, the Japanese rebellion, or the rebellion of the people in Shandong and other places recently, in fact, the reason is related to the word "money". There is no money, and the border army's food and salary logistics are tight, and they can't resist the Mongolian response; There is no money, the coastal armaments are tight, and the Japanese cannot be exterminated; If I have no money, when there is a natural disaster of floods, droughts, and locusts, I can't help the disaster, if I have abundant money and food, and I am suffering from small diseases such as scabies and chaos, under the wise leadership of the saint, I can get the world to be peaceful. An official in Yan Song's camp said loudly.

"What do you think?" An official on Li Mo's side answered.

"Reopen the market, and the official tax system will be established."

The official in Yan Song's camp said categorically, and then the more he spoke, the more excited he became, "The tax system is double the revenue of the other system. As far as the Southern Song Dynasty is concerned, the Southern Song Dynasty is a corner of peace, and the fertile land in the north is occupied by Hulu, but why can the Southern Song Dynasty last for more than 100 years. The tax revenue generated by the city is quite large, and the blood transfusion of the Southern Song Dynasty has to be extended. As far as the minister knows, at the time of the Southern Song Dynasty. The two cities of Fujian and Guangzhou alone will get 2 million yuan of interest per year, and if all the cities are in, they will get tens of millions of dollars of interest per year. The mere inflow of the market can multiply our taxes. ”

"It's ridiculous, the scourge of the Japanese is in the market, and there has long been a public opinion, and you are allowed to fall wildly. For the sake of my safety, the city must not be reopened. Li Mo flicked his sleeves and accused with a black face.

Li Mo was furious here. Some people on Yan Song's side couldn't help but be a little afraid, Li Mo was a secretary of the ministry, and he had the power to promote officials, and Yan Ge Lao still gave him three points. Not to mention us.

"The market is the most profitable. If the measures are appropriate, and the gains are millions, will they not be won by the people? The Southern Song Dynasty is weak, and the market does not harm the security of the country, not to mention the benefits of our Korean soldiers. ”

Others were afraid of Li Mo, but Yan Shifan was not afraid at all, and retorted with a sneer as soon as Li Mo's words fell.

Emperor Jiajing listened carefully at the moment, and Emperor Jiajing was very interested in what the courtier said just now about the income of the Song Dynasty. The annual income of the Ming Dynasty is only more than 20 million yuan, but I didn't expect the Southern Dynasty, which only occupied the south. The annual income of the city company alone can reach tens of millions, which is almost the same as all the taxes paid by me in the Ming Dynasty throughout the year.

Thinking of this, Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but light up his eyes, not to mention doubling the tax, it was half of it, and it would be much easier to govern the country by himself. In addition, if the tax is increased, then there will be more silver to alchemy.

So, the more Emperor Jiajing thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, in order to get more accurate data of the Southern Song Dynasty City, Emperor Jiajing wrote a small note, and asked Huang Jin to send someone to the Hanlin Academy, so that the Hanlin Academy would prepare the relevant classics of the Southern Song Dynasty City's revenue and the Southern Song Dynasty income.

It was still Xiao Huangmen who had just delivered a note, and this time he hurried to the Hanlin Academy again with a small note written by Emperor Jiajing.

When Xiao Huangmen returned to Hanlin Courtyard with a small note, Yuan Wei's eyes were crooked.

In Yuan Wei's opinion, this small note must be like the last time Emperor Jiajing wrote "sweet and sour fish is better than rice", and it is also a small note praising Zhu Ping'an, so quickly found the book that the emperor was looking for, and it was natural to get praise.

However, when Yuan Wei really saw the words on the small note, he couldn't help but laugh.

Good

The note read, "Find the information of the Southern Song Dynasty City." ”

It's time to find a classic again.

Okay, just now Zhu Ping'an took the **** luck, and he happened to see the two books that the saint was looking for, and not only escaped the catastrophe, but also faintly made a great contribution.

Hmph, this time I want to find the information of the Southern Song Dynasty City, this is not so simple, the classics of the Library Pavilion are vast, I don't believe you Zhu Ping'an has seen this kind of information!

What should I do if I see you Zhu Ping'an this time?! This time, the holy books did not specify, see what you Zhu Ping'an can do.

Looking at the words on the small note, Yuan Wei's heart finally became happy, and the depression was swept away, replaced by a thick sense of comfort.

Like last time, Yuan Wei once again followed Xiaohuangmen to the library where Zhu Ping'an was, and there were many Hanlin officials with him, and almost all of the Hanlin who had done good things last time came again this time.

"O Ichibo Division, let me think about it, it seems that there is a classic book called "Nautical Charts and Kanyu", but I don't know that this book is now in that corner of the library cabinet." After the Hanlin official gave Zhu Ping'an a small note at the small yellow gate, he suggested to Zhu Ping'an.

"I also remember that there is a bound version of "Taxation Strategy of the Southern Song Dynasty", which seems to have a record of the tax payment of the city."

"There is also a book called "Southern Song Dynasty Food and Goods", I seem to have seen it on the second floor of the library in the early years, but it has been a long time, I don't remember which bookshelf it is, I only remember that it is on the bookshelf on the east side of the second floor."

From time to time, someone offered suggestions in Zhu Ping'an's ear, and after a while, he recommended more than N classics, but although he recommended a lot of classics, he didn't know that the classics they recommended were lying in the corner of the library pavilion.

Yuan Wei looked at this scene and smiled secretly, yes, that's right, that's it.

"Thank you, brothers, if you don't dislike it, please sit in the cabinet for a while with a cup of thin tea." Zhu Ping'an interrupted the voices of Hanlin recommending books, and invited them to have a cup of tea in the library pavilion.

Drink tea?

When we are stupid, you will invite us to tea, and we will definitely ask us to help you find books, not good, not good.

As a result, the Hanlin people resigned one after another.

Seeing this, the corners of Yuan Wei's mouth opened even more brilliantly.

However, before Yuan Wei's good mood continued, he saw Zhu Ping'an repeat the words and actions of the last time, and after thanking him, he entered the library again.

This time, I also heard Zhu Ping'an's footsteps going upstairs.

"Ahem, guess what, did Master Zhu happen to see a similar book again?"

The Hanlin people looked at each other, and they couldn't accept it for a while, and one of the Hanlin officials couldn't help but say something with a red face.

It's impossible, it's not so coincidental every time, it's a fluke to be lucky every time, how can you be lucky every time, everyone thinks about it, Zhu Ping'an who feels that this time should, about, if you are reasonable, it shouldn't be.

However, it didn't take long to see Zhu Ping'an come out with a thick book.

Crow's beak!

So, all the Hanlin looked at the Hanlin official who spoke just now, but they didn't expect Zhu Ping'an to find the book so easily as he said.

"This Yongle Dictionary is a detailed information about the Southern Song Dynasty City, where I have a bookmark, and the bookmark place begins with the record of the Southern Song Dynasty City. There is Lao Gonggong. Zhu Ping'an handed the classics to Xiao Huangmen with both hands, and pointed to a bookmark with Yingluo in this thick book to remind Xiao Huangmen.

"Lord Zhu is polite, so our family will go to life." Xiao Huangmen took the classics handed over by Zhu Ping'an and said politely, and then carefully hugged the thick classics and said goodbye.

"Oh, I guessed that there must be a record of the city ship division in the Yongle canon, so I tried to find it according to the map of Hongwu Zhengyun, and I really found it, and there happened to be a record of the city ship division in the Yongle canon, from the establishment of the institution to the income per year."

Zhu Ping'an explained to the curious Hanlin officials outside the door.

Uh, the Yongle Ceremony, yes, the Yongle Ceremony encompasses all things, how can there be no market division.

When all the Hanlin officials heard this, they suddenly realized that it could still be like this, and they were somewhat convinced by Zhu Ping'an's quick reaction.

Yuan Wei's face was gloomy again, and he returned to his position with steps, and his face was so heavy that water could drip out. Such a kid can't stay in Hanlin Courtyard anymore!

If Emperor Jiajing was a little surprised to find a book just now, then this time when Xiao Huangmen returned to the Xiyuan Hall with this volume of Yongle Ceremony to resume his life, Emperor Jiajing was very surprised, he didn't expect the efficiency of the Hanlin Academy to become so outstanding, and it was like two people before.

If the last time I looked for a book was just to stir up a trace of Emperor Jiajing's heartstrings, then this time looking for a book was enough to arouse Emperor Jiajing's interest, and Emperor Jiajing was curious to ask Huang Jin to call the little yellow door to ask a few questions after reading this volume of Yongle Canon's record of the city's revenue.

In the face of Emperor Jiajing's inquiry, Xiaohuangmen did not hide a trace, and explained everything he saw and heard to Emperor Jiajing from the Hanlin Academy, the Library Pavilion, Zhu Ping'an, and everything he saw and heard.

"Interesting, interesting, it turned out to be my champion. Huang Ban passed the decree, and Zhu was ordered to meet him safely, and I wanted to reward him well. When Emperor Jiajing heard this, he smiled and opened Chrysostom. (To be continued.) )
